I'm a mutt. My late biological father had a Swedish surname, my mother has a Germanic Swiss surname. Mine is a fusion of the two, thus American. There's a sprinkling of other stuff, too, like Spanish, Cherokee, and other things. My family isn't really into genealogy. I find it fascinating. I'd love to know what area of Sweden my folks were from. That country fascinates me.
